Jassatthi muccuna sakkham jassa vatthi palayanam jo jane na marrissami so hu kamkhe sue siya.
Who have come out of the powerful clutches of death and one who knows that one will never die can hope for tommorrow.
From Acharya Mahashraman
Roj Ki Ek Salaah It can be a very difficult task to win over the outburst of passions but not impossible. Set a goal;
battle with it. Eventually you will be frigid.

Three views There are three views: right view (samyak drishti), wrong view (mithya dristi) and right wrong view (samyak mithya drishti). Both wrong view and right view influence us. We cannot grasp the truth through these two. Only when we move away from these two views and adopt right views does the consciousness of anekantha blossom with in us. Even this has a biological reason.The hypothalamus in our brain has two special hormones. One is called melatonin and other is seratonin. These chemicals influence our character.They influence our perspective. According to karma, sastra,mohaniya karma influences our consciousness, numbs it. If the atoms of numbness were not there then our mind would never get distorted. Our conscious is infinite and limitless. It does not have the limits of time and space.The secretion of melatonin creates distortions in our charactor. It is responsible for sexual passions,anger and fear.The other chemical serotonin also influences us greatly. It influences our perspective. Its main activity is to inhibit the conscious brain. It swarms the brain covering the consciousness. Excerpts from "ANEKANTA, THE THIRD EYE" By Acharya Mahaprajna
Terapanth Sthapna Divas and Guru Purnima was celebrated at Dinesh and Sonya Jain's house on July 9.
Samani Sanmati Pragyaji and Samani Jayant Pragyaji enlightened the gathering about the history of Terapanth sect and Acharya Bhikshu. Acharya Bhikshu studied Agam in depth and came up with new philosophy. His philoshphy was not accepted during those times so he created Terapanth sect and established the tenets of his philosophy on auspicious day of Guru Purnima Day which is now also celebrated as Terapanth Sthapna Divas. Ansh Doshi, Aksh Doshi and Madhu Parmar mesmerized the gathering with a song devoted on auspicious day of Guru Purnima Day which is now also celebrated as Terapanth Sthapna Divas. Ansh Doshi, Aksh Doshi and Madhu Parmar mesmerized the gathering with a song devoted on gurus. The program was followed by lunch.
